You got a shiny in how many eggs ? (Masuda Method)

So I want to know your experience with breeding with the Masuda Method :

How many eggs did you need to hatch a shiny pokémon?

If you've done it a lot what's your lowest number of eggs and your highest?

What is the Masuda method?

Here's what you can find about it on serebii.net :

In the fourth generation, a variety of things have changed in order to allow for the obtaining of Shiny Pokémon. First is a method commonly known as the Masuda Method, named after the game developer and the person who revealed it; Junichi Masuda. This method has you breed two Pokémon. However, one of the Pokémon must be of a different nationality than your game (such as a Japanese Pokémon on an English game). This will lower the chances of hatching a shiny Pokémon from 1 in 8,192 to 1 in 2,048 cutting it by 75% in Generation IV. However, in Generation V, it is boosted even further from 1 in 8,192 to 1 in 1,365.3.

If you've done it a lot what your lower number of eggs and your highest? My lowest is around 10 eggs for a raltsMy highest is currently 1200+ since after more than 1200 eggs, it still didn't get my shiny beldum
